Yes! I caved and started something new. I don't think this will keep me from working on my UFOs though. Jenny of Elefantz is sharing a embroidered alphabet sampler design. I love samplers. This design of Jenny's features her signature roses. Jenny sent me some of the Cottage Garden Threads that she uses for her embroidered projects when I won a giveaway she was having a couple weeks ago. I chose to use this plum color for my sampler. Look for a new letter every Monday. Letter C is next so you have time to join in.

I don't think you could pass on Jenny's lovely patterns. :o)
Sit back and enjoy!
Jenny's sampler is so charming ... it's not your fault--there's no way you could resist :-)
Wow Carrie! Looks like you have accomplished quite a lot - you deserve to start something new! And I couldn't think of anythign sweeter to start than Jenny's Alphabet Sampler :*D I'm saving them to work on at a later time. They are just too, too sweet. And yours will be very elegant in that luscious purple.
I would not have been able to resist that gorgeous variegated thread either... looks amazing!
That's the perfect project to cave on. She's so wonderful.

Love the snowman! Might I ask where that pattern is from? Those threads you won from Jenny are so yummy - perfect for her sweet sampler.
Oh it is so pretty! Aren't you glad you did it? I am sure it made you very happy. After all this is what is important. Good for you. Love your stitches.
Such a cute snowangel block :)
And a new project...you go girl!
Thanks for linking up!
I don't blame you for that start - I hope I can jump in and catch up when I get back home in March. All of your other finishes more than make up for a new start! I'll be watching for them.
I think I may have to cave in too and start this lovely project!! I hope you enjoy the Cottage Garden threads; I love the colours of them and really love them!! Your snowman/angel is so cool!!!
That's okay, it looks terrific. It will be our secret.
Yay! Good for you all on counts:)
Such beautiful thread!!! It will be a lovely sampler for sure!! I'm still glad you are doing the UFOs!!! Sure is keeping me motivated to get some projects finished!!
Blessings
Oh, a red work snowman. Cute!
I'm stitching this sampler too. Looking forward to watching yours grow.
Carrie, your snowman is so cute!!
We all have our downfalls...lol It is a good project to cave in for. I love your snowman or should I say snow angel. Hugs
...LOL......I'm sorry Carrie.......sometimes we bloggers are such bad influences on each other!!!
Cute redwork!!
sounds like you are getting so much done, you deserve a new project!
Love your snowman making a snow angel!
Temptress! Are you trying to bring us down with you?
I must not look, I must not... I looked...ahhh
No willpower when it comes to Jenny's designs!! Love that snowman..you just have to smile when you look at him!
LOL! I caved too and bought new fabric to make new dresses for Anne :)
You made it to Feb 18 :0) You've made a ton of progress on your ufo's and I don't think a little embroidery block once in awhile will slow you down.
Oh! It's going to be lovely!
I am working on those embroidered snowmen too. They are my travel project. Probably take them to China!
Good for you...Love that snowman....
It's too pretty to pass up.
I don't blame you at all for starting that new project. I ummed and ahhhed about starting it, but I have another alphabet embroidery project waiting in the wings for me so didn't dare!
I love the snowman and a new project with alphabets sounds like a lot of fun.
I'm downloading her patterns Carrie but haven't started them yet. I'd love to have some of those threads to try but can't find them in the U.S. Do you know anyone who sells them? blessings, marlene
